Notice of Radar Data Pilot Program (RDPP) Solicitation of Participants.
Summary
The Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), announces the opportunity to apply for participation in a Radar Data Pilot Program (RDPP), made available under the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 (Pub. L. 118-63), Section 905, Radar Data Pilot Program. The RDPP directs the FAA Administrator, in coordination with the Secretary of Defense, and other heads of relevant Federal agencies, to establish a pilot program to make airspace data feeds containing Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) available to qualified users (as determined by the FAA Administrator). Based on these criteria, the FAA has established policy to implement a collaborative process with the U.S. interagency partners to determine qualification of applicants seeking airspace data feeds containing SUI and CUI related to air traffic within the National Airspace System (NAS) to provide and enable Air Traffic Management (ATM) services and Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Traffic Management (UTM) services, or to test technologies that may enable or enhance the provision of ATM and UTM services.
